1. A method comprising: presenting, on a display of a user device, a first screen that includes a first element presented at a location occupying less than an entirety of the first screen; presenting, on the display of the user device, a second screen that: includes a second element presented at a location of the second screen that is similar to the location of the first element on the first screen; and does not include the first element; receiving, by the user device, an input at the second screen requesting that the first element be presented together with the second element to enable comparison of the first element and the second element; and outputting, on the display of the user device, a view of the first element contemporaneously with a view of the second element within the second screen.

2

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first element comprises an image and the second element comprises a different image.

3

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein outputting the view of the first element contemporaneously with the view of the second element comprises an overlay over the second screen.

4

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising enabling comparison of the first element and the second element with at least one additional element by outputting a view of at least one additional element contemporaneously with the view of the first element and the view of the second element.

5

5. The method of claim 1 , the second element being presented at the location that is similar to the location of the first element by presenting the first element and the second element using at least one common pixel location of the display of the user device.

6

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first screen is a web page and the second screen is a web page.

7

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein presenting the second screen comprises ceasing display of the first screen and refreshing the display of the user device with the second screen.

8

8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising storing the view of the first element and the view of the second element in a browser cache at the user device.

9

9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising storing the view of the first element as a uniform resource locator (URL) that is operable to retrieve the view of the first element.

10

10. A system comprising: one or more processors; and a computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that are executable by the one or more processors to perform operations comprising: presenting, on a display of a user device, a first screen that: includes a first element presented at a location occupying less than an entirety of the first screen; and does not include the first element; presenting, on the display of the user device, a second screen that includes a second element presented at a location of the second screen that is similar to the location of the first element on the first screen; receiving, by the user device, an input at the second screen requesting that the first element be presented together with the second element to enable comparison of the first element and the second element; and outputting, on the display of the user device, a view of the first element contemporaneously with a view of the second element within the second screen.

11

11. The system of claim 10 , the operations further comprising storing the view of the first element and the view of the second element in a browser cache at the user device.

12

12. The system of claim 10 , the operations further comprising storing the view of the first element as a uniform resource locator (URL) that is operable to retrieve the view of the first element.

13

13. The system of claim 10 , wherein presenting the second screen comprises ceasing display of the first screen and refreshing the display of the user device with the second screen.

14

14. The system of claim 10 , wherein the first element comprises an image displayed on a first web page and the second element comprises a second image displayed on a second web page.

15

15. A method comprising: presenting, on a display of a user device, a first user interface that includes a first element presented at a location occupying less than an entirety of the first user interface; presenting, on the display of the user device, a second user interface that: includes a second element presented at a location on the second user interface that is similar to the location of the first element on the first user interface; and does not include the first element; receiving, by the user device, an input at the second user interface requesting that the first element be presented together with the second element; and outputting, at the display of the user device, a view of the first element contemporaneously with a view of the second element within the second user interface.

16

16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the first element comprises at least one video frame for a first video segment and the second element comprises at least one video frame for a second video segment.

17

17. The method of claim 15 , wherein outputting the view of the first element contemporaneously with the view of the second element comprises overlaying the first element over the second element.

18

18. The method of claim 15 , wherein outputting the view of the first element contemporaneously with the view of the second element comprises overlaying the second element over the first element.

19

19. The method of claim 15 , wherein the first user interface is distinguished from the second user interface by inclusion of the first element presented at the location occupying less than the entirety of the first user interface.

20

20. The method of claim 15 , wherein presenting the second user interface comprises replacing a display of the first element with a display of the second element.
